Social Treatment Opportunity Programs (STOP)

These programs are divided into two categories:
1. Chemical Abusers - these are people who are not dependent on alcohol or drugs, and use simply for the euphoric effect. Programs for these individuals are designed around appropriate decision making, holistic living, stress reduction, social planning, and perhaps mental health stressors.
2. Chemical Dependent - these are people who are psychologically, sociologically, or physiologically dependent on chemicals to function. There is often a family history of alcoholism or drug dependency and the individual's chemical use often results in loss of control, increased tolerance and frequent or pronounced episodes of consumption.
